It's 2020 but Heidi Klum is bringing back memories of 2019 because she's BACK ON "AGT!"
The star left the popular show in February last year along with Mel B and they were replaced by Julianne Hough and Gabrielle Union but that is an entirely different story. Klum spoke with Entertainment Tonight ahead of the January 6th premiere of "AGT: The Champions" and she could not have been more impressed with the shows' warm welcome.
" It feels so good to be back and everyone has been so amazing," Heidi told ET. You know, there were welcome signs everywhere, the whole audience was chanting my name! I was like, 'Oh my God,' I was going beet red. It was just really sweet like I didn't expect it, you know, for everyone to be this welcoming."

Heidi looked amazing in a sultry video she posted on Instagram to promote the new show. She dazzled in a sparkly low cut dress that fit her tall form perfectly as she high-stepped in her matching heels.
"Walking into the weekend like … thinking only 3 more days until #AGTChampions ? @agt," she captioned the short teaser video.
Fans flooded her post with praise and support for her coming back to the show.
"So glad you are back ?," one fan commented while another said, "SLAY. THAT. DRESS."
"Soooooo shinyyyyy??" a third excited fan wrote.

Klum went on to talk about a performance that left her "mind-blown" and cuased her to hit her Golden Buzzer but she would not reveal the name of the act.
"I'm like, 'How come this person is not a star already that we have not heard of this person yet again?'" Heidi excitedly said. "I'm actually so honored and proud that I got to push my buzzer for this person and hopefully help them launch it or go to the next step.
She continued, "I mean fingers and toes crossed that my golden buzzer is gonna win this thing. I know I've said it before, but this time mark my words – this is it."
"AGT: The Champions" premiers on January 6.
